I have a Powerlet socket on the beemer, and I really like having it for a lot of reasons. I'm trying to figure out where I can put one on the TBA. Any ideas? (I ordered a low profile socket, which requires about 1 1/2 inches of clearence behind the socket.)

There is one made to go on the upper engine mount above the carbs.

Back of your headlight bucket might work out good.

I have the adaptor that plugs into the Battery Tender lead, so mine is just under the carbs. Tucks easily out of sight, but to this point I only occasionally used it. I just bought a GPS and might want one a little closer to the handlebars.

I think it's going to go on the panel just above the battery and behind the fake air filter grate.

The Engine mount is made for a Hella type (Powerlet socket).
